Description

This detached four-bedroom family home sits on a substantial plot of nearly three-quarters of an acre in the scenic village of West Hanningfield, located on the edge of Chelmsford. With no onward chain, this property presents an excellent opportunity for those looking to invest in a renovation project. The residence requires modernisation throughout, offering potential buyers the chance to tailor it to their own specifications. The accommodation includes a spacious lounge with dual aspect views and patio doors leading to the garden, a separate dining room, and a kitchen that features wall and base units as well as space for essential appliances. An inner hallway connects to a ground floor shower room and utility area. The first floor comprises four bedrooms, each with adequate natural light, and a bathroom that offers fundamental amenities. Outside, the expansive garden space is currently overgrown but holds promise for landscaping or extending the current structure (subject to planning consent). With off-road parking for multiple vehicles and a garage included, this home is ready for transformation into a modern family dwelling while being situated in an area known for its community spirit and accessibility to Chelmsford's amenities.
